Offseason facts to remember

Fact: I downloaded nearly three-dozen old Dropkick Murphys songs this weekend, something that I suppose makes it perfectly clear how much I miss baseball at this point.

Fact: Josh Beckett and his friends like floral-patterned shirts, as this photo Texas Gal posted at Center Field late last week shows:

Fact: The photo was taken at a New Year's Eve party that was hosted by Paris Hilton and attended by Mo Vaughn and Suge flippin' Knight, according to Center Field. Sounds pretty much like the picture-perfect picture of a drama-free evening, if you ask me.

On another note, I'll be stepping it up this week on Eye on Foxborough in anticipation of the Patriots appearing in the AFC Championship Game against the San Diego Chargers. It'll be like Red Sox Monster -- only without all the Papelbonian... logic.
